Ceturtā Mozus 12
1 Tad Mirjame un Ārons runāja pret Mozu tās etiopiešu sievas dēļ ko viņš bija ņēmis, jo viņš vienu etiopieti bija ņēmis par sievu, un tie sacīja:
[Moses’/My older sister] Miriam and [his/my older brother] Aaron were saying this: “Is Moses the only one to whom Yahweh has spoken messages to tell to us [RHQ]? Does Yahweh not speak messages to us two also?” [They told people that] they were saying that because Moses/I had married a woman who was a descendant of the Cush people-group, [but they were really saying that because they (were jealous/did not want Moses/me to be the only leader of the Israeli people)]. But Yahweh heard what they were saying.
2 Vai Tas Kungs tikai caur Mozu vien runājis? Vai tas nav arī caur mums runājis? Un Tas Kungs to dzirdēja.
3 Bet tas vīrs Mozus bija ļoti lēnprātīgs, vairāk nekā visi cilvēki virs zemes.
[The truth was that] Moses/I was very humble. He/I was more humble than anyone else on the earth [and Moses/I had not appointed himself/myself to be their leader].
4 Tad Tas Kungs piepeši runāja uz Mozu un uz Āronu un uz Mirjami: nāciet ārā jūs trīs pie saiešanas telts; un tie trīs nāca ārā.
So immediately Yahweh spoke to Moses/me and to Aaron and Miriam. He said, “All three of you must go and stand at the Sacred Tent.” So they/we did that.
5 Tad Tas Kungs nonāca padebeša stabā un stāvēja saiešanas telts durvīs; un viņš sauca Āronu un Mirjami, un tie abi nāca ārā.
Then Yahweh descended to the entrance of the tent in a cloud [that resembled a huge white] pillar. He told Aaron and Miriam to step forward, so they did.
6 Un Viņš sacīja: klausiet jel Manu vārdu! Ja jūsu starpā viens pravietis, tad Es, Tas Kungs, viņam parādos parādīšanā, caur sapni Es ar viņu runāju.
Then he said to them, “Listen to me! When a prophet is among you, I [usually] reveal myself to him by allowing him to see visions, and I speak to him in dreams.
7 Tāds nav Mans kalps Mozus, kas visā Manā namā ir uzticīgs.
But that is not the way I speak to my servant Moses. I trust that he will lead my people [well].
8 Muti pret muti Es ar viņu runāju un ne caur tumšiem vārdiem, bet redzēdams viņš redz Tā Kunga vaigu; kādēļ tad jūs neesat bijušies runāt pret Manu kalpu, pret Mozu?
So I talk to him face-to-face. I speak to him (clearly/using words that he will understand easily), not using parables. He has even seen what I look like. So you should be afraid to criticize my servant Moses!”
9 Un Tā Kunga bardzība iedegās pret tiem, un Viņš aizgāja.
Yahweh was very angry with Miriam and Aaron, and he left.
10 Un tas padebesis atstājās no telts virsas, un redzi, Mirjame bija spitālīga kā sniegs, un Ārons uzlūkoja Mirjami, un redzi, tā bija spitālīga.
When the cloud rose up from the Sacred Tent, Aaron looked at Miriam, and he saw that her skin was [as white] as snow, because she now had leprosy.
11 Tad Ārons sacīja uz Mozu: lūdzams, mans kungs, nepielīdzini mums tos grēkus, ar ko mēs ģeķīgi esam darījuši un ar ko esam apgrēkojušies.
Aaron said to Moses/me, “My master, please do not punish us for this sin that we have foolishly committed.
12 Lai viņa nav kā tas, kas nedzīvs iziet no mātes miesām, kam puse no miesas jau saēsta.
Do not allow Miriam to be like a baby that is already dead when it is born, whose flesh is already half decayed!”
13 Tad Mozus brēca uz To Kungu un sacīja: Ak Dievs, lūdzams, dziedini jel viņu!
So Moses/I cried out to Yahweh, saying, “God, I plead with you to heal her!”
14 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Mozu: kad viņas tēvs spļaudams viņas vaigā būtu spļāvis, vai tā septiņas dienas nekaunētos? Lai tā septiņas dienas ārā aiz lēģera top ieslēgta un pēc tam lai tā atkal top pieņemta.
But Yahweh replied, “If her father had [rebuked her for doing something wrong by] spitting in her face, she would have been ashamed for seven days. [She should be ashamed because of what she has done]. So send her outside the camp for seven days. Then [she will not have leprosy any more, and] she may return to the camp.”
15 Tad Mirjame tapa ieslēgta ārā aiz lēģera septiņas dienas, un tie ļaudis negāja tālāki, kamēr Mirjame atkal tapa pieņemta.
So they sent her outside the camp for seven days. (The people/We) did not move [to another location] until she returned.
16 Bet pēc tam tie ļaudis cēlās no Hacerotas un apmetās Pārana tuksnesī.
But after [she returned], they/we left Hazeroth and moved [north] in the Paran Desert and set up their/our tents there.
